Nearly there with wxEuphoria and wxIDE

I think I'm on the point of getting wxEuphoria and wxIDE up and running in Xubuntu 11.04.
Having re-read the "read me" file for wxEuphoria, I realised I needed a package called gtk+-2.0-dev. Tried to install that with apt-get and was told the package couldn't be found. After a bit of research I discovered the package is actually called gtk+2.0-dev, so I installed that and tried ./configure again, got a message saying there was no such command. Found a Bash tutorial online which seemed to suggest I should type "source configure" instead of "./configure", so I tried that and it worked (after it had told me I needed wx-config and which packages I could install that contain it).
So I finally got through configure, make and make install. Now all I've got to do is get Bash to stop telling me it can't open the file when I try to run a program. Is that because I have to add the Euphoria directories to PATH? I seem to recall having to do that before. If so, please could someone just remind me how to do that. I went into .profile and found the line: PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH". Where in that string do I insert the extra directories?
Thank you.
